European MBA: IT Project Manager

Educational level: EUROPEAN MASTER
Areas of excellence: IT – Digital Tools – Technology

Digitalisation is spreading fast and having an impact on all professional sectors. A good leader must ensure that his or her organisation keeps pace with the latest technological changes. Fast and ground-breaking changes are forcing organisations to develop new capacities and modify their organisational culture.

These essential strategic choices are, in turn, having an impact on workplace organisation, human resources and information management, the deployment of new products and services, and, additionally, organisations’ communications strategies and methods.

IT project managers are experts possessing not only technical IT skills (development, programming, database management, network security and administration etc.) but also financial (production and management of a budget) and managerial (team management) know-how. IT project managers also have communication skills allowing them to translate customer needs into concrete IT solutions and to meet the requirements of the various departments within their organisations. IT project managers are active at all stages of a project, from planning to implementation and monitoring.
